Hi,
I am attempting to use autoyast to install SLES 9 SP2 on a new Dell
2850. I am using a .xml file for the partitioning and package selection
and everything works fine until the first reboot. Upon rebooting, the
server cannot find its' hard disks. The raid controller it is attempting
to use is a megaraid. If I build this server by-hand using the SP2 cd's
the install works and during boot it shows it is using the megaraid_mbox
module. This is what is also listed in /etc/sysconfig/kernel. If I build
using autoyast, then use a rescue cd to see the drives and mount / no
megaraid module is present in /etc/sysconfig/kernel. My question is
this: Can I force the autoyast installation to use the megaraid_mbox
module? I have tried putting the following line
in /tftp/pxelinux.cfg/default file 

label linux
kernel linux
append pci=noacpi ide=nodma barrier=off initrd=initrd ramdisk_size=65536
insmod=megaraid_mbox 

along with pointers to my NFS share and the xml file.
Is this the correct way to add a module, or am I missing something else?

Thanks,
Rob Thompson
